Any speaker experts? PLEASE HELP!!?

Question

does anybody know of a device which converts the regular wires (that come from the speakers and are held in 'clips') into a 3.5mm jack?

This is so i can plug some speakers that i have into the back of my current radio. Please and thank you. (no really - PLZ HELP - im not saying this for the sake of it you know!)

Answer 1

Dayne - The problem is that you are trying to connect unamplified, regular speakers into a headphone jack.  Headphone jacks are for headphones or amplified speakers (like computer speakers) only.

Even if you get the right wire, it won't work because the headphone jack does not have enough "power" to run the speakers.

You need to get an amplifier or computer speakers to make this work.

Answer 2

You need a 3.5mm to pigtail cable.
